Biochemical association between the prevalence of genetic polymorphism and myocardial infarction

Genetic polymorphism has a vital role in the pathogenesis and development of myocardial infarction (MI). Single nucleotide at any one amino acid sequences can result diseased state. A single gene exhibit genetic more than position giving rise to different variants. angiotensinogen (AGT) M235T, AGT T174M, angiotensin-1-converting enzyme (ACE) I/D, endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS), methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) be risk factor for MI. However, it is important study prevalence polymorphisms these genes among populations. MI influenced by various genes, including AGT, ACE, eNOS, MTHFR, etc. association varies populations, but ethnic groups could show contradictory results. These have shown positive with risks some whereas results not been consistent every group. In this article, we summarized variations aforementioned their
